Delegate counts

DemocraticSpace, in their tradition of tracking every conceivable statistic of every election out there, has decided to try to get the list for the number of delegates for every club, riding, and commission from aroud the country. Now while it really isn't much of a guage for support for anything, it is still interesting to look at.

You have some ridings, such as York-Simcoe or Newmarket where it looks like each camp just went with probably everyone they wanted to, since the highest camps are in the 10-15 range. Then you have some ridings like Ottawa Centre where the battle will be not just which candidates get delegates but which delegates get elected. 34 for Dion and 36 for Ignatieff? 141 delegates on the ballot there. I'm glad I don't live there to vote. It's going to take people a half hour just to sort through the list and try to make sure they've got all 14 people they want.

So if you know how many people are running in your area, help out Greg and give him your riding or club's numbers!
